The team at Arbor Trek was attentive, knowledgeable, informative, obsessed with safety and fun. They provided detailed instructions along with a practice run before hitting the actual course (a great benefit for the first time zippers in the group). The team was diligent to ensure safety was paramount and provided historical information about VT, Smuggler's Notch and the local area.... More

We did a tour in May 2012. It was a lot of fun, and I would definitely do it again. Our tour only had four people on it, so it went by relatively quickly. I was kind of worried that part of the tour was going to be a "hippie-ish" "aren't the trees great" type of thing, but it wasn't.... More

This was my second experience ziplining (1st was in Costa Rica) and I'm not sure if it was because I'd done it before, but I have to admit I liked it better the first time. Still lots of fun, especially if you've never been before. My favorite part was the repelling. The sky bridges are very short and so enclosed... More

It would have been nice to go when there was snow on the ground, but sadly Vermont had a very mild winter. Still, it was a very beautiful day and very fun. I recommend splurging on the longer tour vs. the express. The express is just too short, and leaves you wanting more fun. However, if you are very afraid... More

This is the second zipline experience - the first one being in St. Lucia on our honeymoon. The series of ziplines at Arbortrek are decent in both length and speed attained. The staff was very friendly and informative. I particularly enjoyed the rappelling.

Our family stumbled across an ArborTrek ad and decided to close our Christmas ski vacation in Stowe with something a little different. WOW! What an amazing experience! We had not read any reviews and only had a few hours before our flight, but all agreed to take a leap of faith....literally. My husband, two teens and I had wonderful experience... More

I have zipped in Vancouver, Central Florida, and Alaska, so my expectations were high. ArborTrek did not disappoint. I went in December when there was snow on the ground. Two of their lines are the longest I've ever done. The view was spectacular - I would love to get back in the fall when the leaves change. The crew was... More

Arriving at Arbortrek, the windy road led to ample parking. Taking the morning tour, the light was perfect. The 2 guides walked us through 'training' and 'equipment use'. I was thankful they were knowledgeable and very careful with their charges as I had never done this before. The van ride to the beginning of the tour was thankfully bit bumpy... More

Was skeptical about a zip line adventure so close to home (45 minutes). Tried one in Cancun that was a blast after reading about it on Trip Advisor, didn't think this could be as good. Wrong, Wrong, Wrong!! Was truly a great day in the foliage of Vermont, with an awesome & exciting trek down the mountainside. The guides were... More
